DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The above and other features of the present invention will become more distinct by a detailed description of embodiments shown in combination with attached drawings. Identical reference numbers represent the same or similar parts in the attached drawings of the invention.

Advertisements which were originally broadcasted on television and buildings have increasingly flowed into Internet. The significance of putting advertisements on the Internet cannot be ignored in order to achieve a better propaganda effect. Internet advertisements are being welcomed more and more by corporations due to its features of form diversity, fast production, and ease of change. For many Internet content providers, especially for large-scale portal websites, Internet advertising revenue has become one of their main revenue streams and profit sources. An Internet content provider or a website often charges an advertiser an advertising fee by counting the click volume of an advertisement by users.

Many corporations are significantly interested in advertising on the Internet. The advertisement information can be used in multiple advertisement data applications. For example, the advertising investment of a rival is estimated based on the distribution situation of Internet online advertisements. However, due to the diversity of typeset layouts and format types among different websites and web pages, it is difficult to accurately detect different advertisements coming from different web pages. Even within the same web page, a change in advertiser can result in a change in advertisement placement. Thus, it is difficult to accurately discover advertisements in a web page.

FIG. 1 shows a flowchart of a method for identifying advertisements in a web page according to an embodiment of the invention. In FIG. 1, the process starts from 101 where a sample page is received. The sample page refers to either a web page or a website that is input for retrieving advertisements included in it. The sample page can be (1) specified or input by a user, or (2) captured randomly or in accordance with a certain rule. The sample page can be either one web page or a plurality of web pages. The reception of the sample page in step 101 can be direct reception of a web page of the sample page in one embodiment according to the invention, reception of a URL address of the sample page in another embodiment according to the invention, or reception of source code such as HTML source code of the sample page in a further embodiment according to the invention.

After the sample page is received, the sample page is analyzed to obtain a node feature in step 103. The analysis includes the step of analyzing the source code of the sample page. The source code includes any source code which can be used to display web pages such as HTML.

The concept “a node of a web page” needs to be illuminated. It is well known by those skilled in the art that a web page exists in the form of a DOM Tree structure in the HTML code, with respective nodes of the tree structure being the nodes of the web page. For example, the following is sample HTML code:

<a href=“http://www.w3schools.com”>Visit W3Schools.com!</a>

The HTML code points at the link “http://www.3schools.com”. Corresponding anchor text is displayed as “Visit W3Schools.com!”. The tag “<a>” defines a page node. This type of page node can be used in two modes: (1) create a link to another file (page) and (2) create a bookmark within a file. The HTML code which is bracketed by the angle brackets in the HTML source code is the node of the web page. The node feature of the sample page can include one or more of the following parameters: location, shape, height, width, area and type. The node feature can also include other parameters other than these parameters as long as they are the parameters for describing the features of the node. Those skilled in the art can select one or more of these parameters as the node features of the sample page.

According to an embodiment of the invention, parameters, such as length and width, are obtained by executing the source code of the sample page. This is specifically described in FIG. 4A, FIG. 4B and FIG. 4C and their corresponding literal descriptions. According to another embodiment of the invention, the parameter information regarding features of respective nodes can be included in the source code of the sample page. Parameters for node features of the sample page can be obtained by directly reading the source code of the sample page. For example, in <img src=“adl.jpg” align=“bottom” width=“240” height=“80”/>, the parameters of location (align), width and height are defined. The feature information of the page node can be obtained by reading such HTML code. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that it can fall into the protection scope of the invention no matter what manner is employed to obtain the node feature of the sample page.

A sample advertisement in the sample page is determined in step 105 in accordance with the node feature of the sample page obtained in step 103 and a preset rule. Here, the preset rule defines features within a page node which are characteristic of advertisements. Also, the preset rule can be set in accordance with one or more parameters such as location, shape, height, width, area and type.

According to an embodiment of the invention, a sample advertisement in the sample page is determined by matching the preset rule with the node feature. For example, a preset rule can define an advertising node as any image node with a height between 60 px and 100 px (the parameter of height) and a width between 200 px and 500 px (the parameter of width). Accordingly, after the node feature of the sample page is obtained in step 103, the obtained node feature can be matched with the rule, and any node which meets the preset rule's criteria is determined to be a sample advertisement.

In step 107, the sample advertisement is analyzed to obtain a link mode. A sample advertisement's link mode refers to common URL modes or features that are common in the sample advertisement. Although URL addresses of different sample advertisements can be different, URL addresses of advertisements on most websites have a fixed mode. Therefore, the common mode of the sample advertisement's URL addresses is analyzed in step 105. In other words, the modes of the advertisement's URL addresses on the sample page and the website where the sample page is located are obtained. According to one embodiment of the invention, the common mode or feature of the URL addresses of different sample advertisements can be analyzed utilizing a table shown in FIG. 3. The table shown in FIG. 3 shows the analysis of the URL addresses of two sample advertisements, assuming that only two sample advertisements are obtained by analyzing the sample page:

URL for sample advertisement 1:

-   -   http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=103&type=c

URL for sample advertisement 2:

-   -   http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=20&type=df

According to the table shown in FIG. 3, it can be seen that Protocol, Host, Site, Path, Page, Parameter) and Parameter 2 of the sample advertisement 1 and the sample advertisement 2 are the same except for the values of Parameter) and Parameter 2. Thus, the link mode for all advertisements on the website of www.company.com is as follows:

http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=Numbers&type=Characters

It is to be noted that the table shown in FIG. 3 is only for illustration. Those skilled in the art can employ any other tools to obtain the link mode of the obtained sample advertisement.

Next, in the step 109, advertisements other than the sample advertisement are identified utilizing the link mode of the sample advertisement obtained in step 107. According to one embodiment of the invention, advertisements other than the sample advertisement are identified by matching the link mode with links (URL) of other page nodes, other than the page node of the sample advertisement. According to another embodiment of the invention, the advertisements other than the sample advertisement are identified utilizing a method for a regular expression. The so-called regular expression is one formula for matching one type of character string by using a certain mode. “A certain mode” refers to the link mode obtained by analysis, and “one type of character string” refers to links (URL) for other nodes other than the node of the sample advertisement. The meaning and function of the regular expression should be understood by those skilled in the art, which will not be described in detail.

In step 109, other advertisements other than the sample advertisement are identified. The identification of the other advertisements does not necessarily refer to the identification of all the non-sample advertisements on the website. Those skilled in the art can define a range of identification depending on actual requirements. For example, it can be defined that only some of the page nodes on some web pages are identified. Since large-scale portal websites have a large number of web pages, the identification of advertisements can be restricted to a subset of a website's web pages in order to reduce computation and improve efficiency. For example, if the link for one page node other than above two sample advertisements on the sample page is:

http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=777&type=kk

The above link mode obtained by analysis is matched with the link of the page node. If it is found that matching is successful, the page node is identified as an advertisement on the sample page.

FIG. 2 shows a flowchart of a method for identifying advertisements in a web page according to another embodiment of the invention. Steps 201, 203, 205, 207 and 209 in FIG. 2 correspond to steps 101, 103, 105, 107 and 109 in FIG. 1 respectively. In step 202, the sample page received in step 201 is expanded. The expansion refers to expansion of the amount of sample pages. Specifically, a certain amount of other web pages located in the same website as the received sample page can be acquired automatically, and the acquired other web pages are regarded as the sample pages to be subsequently processed. The expansion is made because a small amount of sample pages may not be sufficient to determine a sample advertisement matching with the preset rule. For example, if only one sample page on a certain website is input by a user, and there is just no sample advertisement matching with the preset rule on the sample page, no sample advertisement is discovered. Therefore the link mode of the sample advertisement is not obtained.

Further, obtain a link mode that sample advertisements commonly have may be difficult if there are only a small number of sample advertisements which match the preset rule. In addition, there can be several page nodes which meet the preset rule's criteria but are not advertising nodes. Additionally, the link modes of several sample advertisements can different from the link modes for most advertisements on the web page or website. Accordingly, in view of high requirements for precision and precision, sample pages are quantitatively expanded and used to perform the subsequent steps or 203-209. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the step 202 of expanding the received sample pages is only one embodiment according to the invention. Performing the subsequent operations without expanding the received sample pages is allowable since it does not influence the technical effect of the invention.

FIG. 4A, FIG. 4B, and FIG. 4C show an example of the determination of a sample advertisement on a sample page according to one embodiment of the invention.

FIG. 4A shows two exemplary sample pages and their corresponding HTML source codes according to the invention. Sample page 1 and sample page 2 are two web pages under the same website. It can be seen from FIG. 4A that the sample page 1 includes four nodes: (1) a title node of “Sample page 1”, (2) a text node of “bla bla bla bla . . . ”, (3) an image link node of “Advertisement 1” and (4) a text link node of “advertisement for company d”. From the HTML source code corresponding to the sample page 1, these four nodes are clearly seen. Further, the parameter information for the node features such as length, width and location of the respective nodes is not included in the HTML source code.

In this case, in order to obtain by analysis the feature information for four nodes of sample page 1, the HTML source code of sample page 1 is read and delivered to an existing browser kernel to be executed. This allows the page presentation effect to be obtained. Next, the browser kernel invokes four nodes in the sample page 1 respectively based on the execution results, to acquire the node feature information of the length and width of the pages, and also returns a result. Those skilled in the art can employ other methods to obtain a page node's feature information.

FIG. 4B shows the node feature of FIG. 4A's sample page 1 obtained by analysis. Node feature information is obtained by analysis for both sample page 1 and the sample page 2, however, for simplicity, only feature information of node “Advertisement 1” in the sample page 1 is shown in FIG. 4B as “Left 8 px, Upper 124 px, Width 325 px, Height 91 px”. Those skilled in the art know that “px” refers to a pixel point. It is assumed that there is a preset rule which states: “if 200 px<width<500 px and 60 px<height<100 px, then select node a”. This means that for a node “a”, if its width is greater than 200 px and less than 200 px, and its height is greater than 60 px and less than 100 px, then the node “a” is a advertising node. The feature of the node “Advertisement 1” in the sample page 1 falls within the preset rule's criteria, therefore the node “Advertisement 1” in sample page 1 is determined to be a sample advertisement. In the same way, the node “Advertisement 2” in the sample page 2 is also determined to be a sample advertisement, assuming that the feature of the node “Advertisement 2” in the sample page 2 also falls within the preset rule's criteria. The automatically identified sample advertisement 1 and sample advertisement 2 are shown in FIG. 4C.

The URLs of the identified sample advertisement 1 and sample advertisement 2 shown in FIG. 4C are analyzed. Their URL addresses respectively are:

Sample advertisement 1: http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=103&type=c

Sample advertisement 2: http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=20&type=df

The link modes for the two sample advertisements can be obtained by analysis as follows:

http://host.company.com/ads/click.jsp?id=Numbers&type=Characters

The “Number” and “Characters” expressed in bold in the link mode means that values for the two parts can be changed, while the remaining parts of the URL addresses are the same. Next, this link mode is to be matched with all other nodes in the sample page 1 and the sample page 2. No advertisement other than the two sample advertisements in the sample page 1 and the sample page 2 are found.

This link mode can be further matched with nodes of all other web pages in the website www.company.com where the sample page 1 and the sample page 2 are located, so that all advertisements under the website are identified. In order to avoid excessively huge computations, it can also be specified that the matching is performed in some web pages under the website so as to identify all advertisements in the specified web pages.
